I only bring this up because I always see them Advertising on this forum.
I have no grudge or ill will towards them. But I was visiting their page and just wondered, how can anyone have any faith in their credibility after the terribly inaccurate big board they put out last year?
2011 NFL Draft: Big Board | NEPatriotsDraft.com - 2012 NFL Draft
While it's only been 1 year, and a lot of these are too early to call. We can easily see some MASSIVE errors. Everyone makes mistakes and no one is perfect, but these are huge errors in judgement that make me question their credibility as a legitimate website. If they were real scouts/analysts, they'd be fired by now.
-Cam Newton not even ranked in the Top 10, and not even ranked as the #1 QB. Blaine Gabbert is ranked ahead of Cam. Horrible analysis of the most popular player in last years draft.
-DaQuan Bowers and Fairley ahead of JJ Watt. Watt is a future pro bowler.
-Bowers and Robert Quinn ahead of Aldon Smith. Laughable. Aldon had the best rookie season for a pass rusher in a long long time.
-Andy Dalton ranked #77. Wayyyyyy too low. Looks like a solid QB so far.
-Jabaal Sheard and Ryan Kerrigan ranked way too low.
-Von Miller ranked #23. They went against every other analyst with that prediction and it was 100% wrong. Miller has turned out exactly how he was projected to as the 2nd pick overall.
I have nothing against the site, but I can't take them serious anymore. It is what it is.
